Variable Speed Turntable

Variable speed control allows operators to match turntable rotational speed and torque with varied tyre and wheel combinations. Ranger’s variable speed turntable permits fast or normal-speed operation for your convenience. The ability to easily switch between high or low turntable speeds minimizes tyre damage and reduces the amount of time it takes to dismount and mount tyres. The variable speed turntable is currently available in 3-phase power.

Lifting up against the pedal moves the turntable in reverse. To increase safety, the reverse direction occurs at the normal speed. The reverse direction is generally used to correct mistakes or reset the tyre position, so it’s important not to let it spin too quickly. Additionally, releasing the pedal at any time immediately halts turntable operation. Ranger puts you in total control of your tyre changing operation.

To help you save power, the turntable is the only electrically operated component on a Ranger tyre changer. All other functions are pneumatic, or air, operated. This decreases the amount (and cost) of electricity used when you operate your tyre changer.

The ability to quickly go back and forth between turntable speeds can shave more than a few seconds off your tyre changing operation—and those seconds add up FAST! The only way to earn more profit is to move faster without sacrificing accuracy or safety. Contact Ranger to learn which tyre changer model(s) feature the variable speed turntable.
